By Jason Kim: WBC/WBO bantamweight champion Nonito Donaire (26-1, 18 KO’s) is finally ready to get back in the ring after months of bickering with his promoters at Top Rank.

With those problems now behind him and his contract extended for another four years, Donaire will be looking to get back in the ring on November 5th. He wanted to fight WBA bantamweight champion Anselmo Moreno in order to pick up another title.

However, Moreno isn’t interested in taking the fight. Donaire will now be fighting one of the following guys: Omar Narvaez (35-0, 23 KO’s), Silence Mabuza (23-3, 19 KO’s), Christian Esquivel (23-2, 17 KO’s), Sebastian Gauthier (21-2, 13 KO’s), Alexander Munoz (35-4, 27 KO’s) and Juan Mercedes (26-3, 17 KO’s).

Narvaez is the No.1 choice that Donaire’s management is shooting for, and he’s easily the best pick of that bunch. The other options are good quality fighters, but they’ve all been beaten and Donaire won’t get a lot of credit for knocking off one of them.

According to Dan Rafael, HBO would like to see Donaire fight Vic Darchinyan again. Donaire stopped Darchinyan in the 5th round in July 2007. However, Donaire’s people aren’t interested in trying to put together a rematch with Darchinyan because they’ve been ignored all these years and don’t want to waste any more time trying to put together a fight with Darchinyan.

Donaire destroyed Fernando Montiel in the 2nd round in his last fight in February. It was an impressive punching display by Donaire, as he not only beat a very good fighter in Montiel, but destroyed him in the process in a one-sided fight.

This will likely be the last time that Donaire fights at bantamweight. He plans on moving up to super bantamweight and going after the top champions in that division like WBA champ Jorge Arce.
